Tidepools Koloa Reviews from The Last Year
This is a beautiful restaurant inside the Grand Hyatt
This is a beautiful restaurant inside the Grand Hyatt worthy of a special occasion. It has upscale vibes with a beautiful view over the pond with lots of Carp in the pond. Our server was super personable and we came here to celebrate a special occasion and she definitely made the experience incredible. Food-wise, the crab cakes were delicious and the ribeye was a highlight. The macadamia crusted fish was fine. Overall, we enjoyed the food, but found the price point a little too high to feel like it was worth coming back for. I wouldn't necessarily go out of my way to get a reservation here, but if you don't mind dropping $70 on an steak entree; Tidepools might be your vibe!
Great ambience and location.
Food is pricey but very good. Have I had a better steak at a comparable price elsewhere? But was it located in a prime location in Kauai? No. All in all an enjoyable experience.
What a fantastic restaurant. Everything we ordered was fantastic and the server made the evening very special. It is a must wh

Stayed at the Grand Hyatt and loved the ambience, food and service. Great portions and fresh ingredients.
Spectacular service
Thank you, Les, for a wonderful dining experience. The menu is a little eclectic so there is something for everyone. I had never had Shutome and quite enjoyed it. The hamachi shashimi was delectable. The restaurant has such nice ambiance and lighting. It feels very cozy and romantic
Ambiance is lovely close to the beach and with the pool
Ambiance is lovely close to the beach and with the pool beneath but other than that the food is overpriced and poorly executed. Service was attentive and nice and they made recommendations. They bring out taro rolls but truthfully the just tasted like regular white bread. The polenta crusted scallops were just okay. The scallops were cooked well but the dish was served lukewarm which was immediately a turn off. The Hamachi sashimi was bland and severely overdressed with soy sauce and ponzu. The Hawaiian catch that evening was mahi as it often is (if I had a nickel for every time the daily catch at any Hawaiian restaurant is mahi I'd be rich haha). I am not a huge fan of mahi but I liked that it came with shellfish. The dish overall was good but not stellar. If you are staying at the Hyatt yes this is a convenient dining option but I'd recommend venturing off property for better more affordable food.

We had a great anniversary dinner with awesome food and a fantastic ambiance! Can't wait to go back next month!
Great atmosphere, food, and service.
Perfect place to enjoy being on Kauai. Juan was a fantastic server, the restaurant is set up beautifully to make each table feel special, and everything we ate was great. The Macadamia crusted fish was unique and delicious, scallops were great, drinks were fun, and dessert was good. Hoping to return in the future!
Highly Recommended Dinner Worth the Price
Tidepools is an excellent choice in the Koloa & Poipu Point area for dinner. We had an open table reservation 3 weeks in advance and yet the earliest we could eat was 8:15pm. We Had tried in the past via open table; yet after all, ,the restaurant was not full! Obvious conclusion is they cater to their Grand Hyatt clientele. The dinner was superb. Juan the waiter was excellent and knowledgeable. Service was 5 star. Food was 5 star. I settled on the decision to try the pork chop dinner which came with rice, asparagus and a special kimchee. Since my diet is low carb, Juan easily switched the rice to a Sweet potato mash The pork chop was cooked to perfection and was NOT dry, It had a glaze paired with it that made it very delicious. Rarely do I find sweet potatoes as a menu choice on Kauai. Asparagus was tender and tasteful. Kimchee was a delight. I realized that as a side dish it complimented the whole dinner; Onions and a touch of heat. Best kimchee I have eaten. Sweet potatoes were perfect. I have no complaint about the ambiance, food, and service which was 5 star excellent. Expect to deal with Valet parking and a journey to find the restaurant on the property; but one has only to ask and they are friendly. Most of the main dishes start at $54 to $61. This is a $$$$ restaurant and only the ala cart is $$$. If you want a superb meal and are willing to pay for it, the whole experience is worth the extra $$$$ price.
We came here for a special dinner and it was so delicious
We came here for a special dinner and it was so delicious and definitely the perfect ending for our special day. We sat in one of the private tables surrounded by the koi fish. Service was good. Ambiance was beautiful. The Hawaiian Catch was one of the best things I ate on the island, everything was so tasty and fresh. I hope we make this a tradition!
We chose this restaurant to celebrate my husband's birthday
We chose this restaurant to celebrate my husband's birthday during our vacation in Kauai. Although our reservation was at 8:30 pm, we arrived at 5 pm feeling famished. Surprisingly, the staff was incredibly accommodating and seated us immediately. Let's talk about the food - it was truly exceptional! We started with a variety of appetizers including poke, beet salads, and the scallop dish, all of which were absolutely fantastic. As for the main course, we ordered the mahi, forbidden rice, and chicken, and every dish was cooked to perfection. And let's not forget about the dessert - it was out of this world! Our server, Martha, deserves special recognition for her outstanding service. She was not only friendly but went above and beyond to ensure we had a memorable dining experience. The breathtaking view from the restaurant added to the overall ambiance, and we ended up spending a delightful 2.5 hours there. Overall, our experience at this restaurant was nothing short of excellent. From the attentive staff to the delicious food and stunning view, it was a truly memorable evening.
God food and service and lovely unique ambiance.
Very expensive and a fairly limited menu'. Never had chicken piccata or francese with a cream sauce but it was good. Wheelchair access is difficult and circuitous.
Outstanding! The service and ambiance was absolutely
Outstanding! The service and ambiance was absolutely perfect and our dinners were so good! The lamb chop appetizer was succulent and the salad was perfect; not overly dressed, just right! Our entrees were all top notch from steak to fish and I would be remiss if I didn't call out the warm bread...so good! We will be back!
Bad Karma
The hostess at this restaurant is undoubtedly the rudest I’ve run across in a long time. The hotel made the reservation but didn’t show on her screen. So no soup for you. Even after showing the hotel’s printout…it made her worse. Manager bought us cocktails. Guessing she is related to someone or there is a shortage of workers.
A Must-Visit Restaurant in Kauai
Tidepools provided a wonderful beginning to our time on Kauai. It’s a beautiful restaurant that has a dining area surrounded by water with fish and waterfalls. We ordered the crab cakes appetizer, Hawaiian Catch (mahi-mahi) and Shutome from our excellent server Robert, and each dish was immaculately prepared. Tidepools is now a permanent fixture on our list of places to visit in Kauai.
Wonderful Experience
Please send our thanks and highest compliments to our amazing waiter, Les. He provided not only the highest level of dining service but also the kindest spirit and pleasant conversation throughout our night. His suggestions for coursing the food and his thorough review of the menu allowed us to make choices that let us sample everything we wanted to try and truly enjoy it all. It is evident that he genuinely loves his job and embodies true Hawaiian spirit. The Hyatt is very lucky to have him!
Perfectly cooked food
What can you say about ultra high end restaurants like Tidepools? The ambience, gorgeous. The service, attentive. The drinks, tasty, but overpriced. The food is delicious. Reasonable portions with HI flare. I have to say, the food was perfectly cooked…everything…like perfect. If you’re into dropping several hundred bucks at dinner, this is as good as any place in the world to do it. If you prefer cheaper eats, head to town.
Beautiful setting, great food, and exceptional service.
Dinner here was exceptional. We started with Caesar salads and the beet and candied lemon appetizer. Sounds a little strange but very good. Main courses included the seared ahi, Hawaiian seafood special, and a swordfish special. All had outstanding flavors. Service by Ron was exceptional - very friendly but professional and knowledgeable. It is very expensive but is a good place to splurge while on vacation.
Excellent experience food and ambiance!
We had a fantastic experience at Tidepools. Our waiter - Juan elevated the experience with his excellent service. Food and ambience excellent - service top notch. Seek out Juan’s section he’s amazing and you will love the food!
Great people and great menu
Tidepools is a very unique setting in the middle of the Hyatt grounds, but yet only a foot or so above the tide pool water. The pools are manmade, but still a cool effect. The best thing was the service - the staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. Not far behind was the food which was locally driven in style. We enjoyed our dinner very much.

Great Service - amazing dinner!!
Read about the site in NYT and bought a reservation at Mother Wolf in LA 2 days later. Worked great and the food was amazing!!!
Worked perfectly!
Got the reservation (that I couldn't get anywhere else) and was able to entertain a group of friends at the infamous Bern's Steakhouse.
Got into Nobu Malibu
Wonderful! My parents are visiting and we have wanted to go to Nobu Malibu for years. I tried getting a reservation myself but it was next to impossible. So glad I was able to buy a reservation on appointment trader for a decent price!
Very easy
Was very hesitant going into this experience but am glad to say that it worked out very well ! will definitely use appointment trader in the future
Fabulous Lunch
I was veeeeeerry skeptical that this would work, particularly at a restaurant as hard to get into as Nobu Malibu, and it was perfect! We had lunch outside on the patio and it was fabulous!
Great reviewer team
Just wanted to take a second to shout out the reviewer team. Even though they probably review hundreds of listings and bids a day, they still take the time to leave great comments and respond relatively quickly. Thanks!
Incredible
I got a reservation to Don Angie, which I've been trying to book for weeks! I am very happy with this service.
Best platform out there!
Super simple, easy, and fast to secure reservations for hard-to-get restaurants and locations!
This app is life changing
This app has opened my world up to so many wonderful new experiences I would never have the chance to have without access to this awesome app! 10/10!
Worked perfectly
Was a little nervous at first but was pleased to see that the booking went through flawlessly.
Highly recommended.
Success on Short Notice
Was able to snag an indoor table at Don Angie through an absolutely seamless worry-free process.
Worked perfectly, thank you!
This is a crazy holiday season in NYC and I was very pleasantly surprised to see that AppointmentTrader works! Will be using again!
Worked flawlessly!
Worked so well! I was a bit nervous, but everything went very smoothly. purchased the reservation, and got into the restaurant seamlessly.
Love this app!
So glad I came across this app :)
Quick table in Miami
I didn’t have my hopes high as it was a party of 4. In 24 hours I had a carbone reservation available! I was very happy as my family really wanted to come here
Prime time, great meal
So easy and had a prime time which I can never seem to get on normal res apps. So worth it
Got impossible NYC res
instead of waiting weeks I got my 4 charles reservation instantly
Worked perfectly to get into Carbone. So delighted
perfect
Worked well, got me into a restaurant with no availability
I was skeptical, and I still don't really know how they managed to find this hard-to-find reservation, but it was a win-win from my point of view, and I'll use this service again.
Last minute reservation for Delilah Las Vegas
Got a last minute reservation, dinner for 2 at Delilah Las Vegas: super impressed! The process was simple, transaction seamless. We had an amazing time! Couldn’t be happier! 😍
It works!
Ok at this point I've attended a reservation purchased on AT by a friend and sold a reservation personally. Both worked pretty smoothly, nothing sketchy about it. A few areas for improvement including a way to more directly communicate between buyers and sellers, but the app always seems to be in development. AT customer support is really(!) responsive and helpful too if you have questions!
Money transfer
As a seller, I like the fact i have the ability now to transfer money out of my AT account and into a bank account. Makes getting the money much easier then the process before.
Love this app
Got to go to places otherwise unreachable
Easy Access
Very easy to get into one of the hardest restaurants to reserve in New York.
Whose name will my reservation be under when I arrive at the venue?
It can be under your name or a name you choose! Some reservation offers already include the AppointmentTrader Transfer Service which will transfer the reservation in to your name. If its not included you can add it on after buying the reservation for a small fee. One thing on that though: As many reservations become available at last minute, taking a reservation in someone else name is quick and great for privacy. Most reservations on AT are listed with a virtual phone number, so all you need to do is present the phone number at the hostess stand and you are good to go!
Tune into NBC News - Top Story Tonight 7:40p ET
Let’s go. Get more people placing bids!
I will give you 50% of ALL of my PROFITS if you teach me how to make profits?
LOL. Thank you The New Yorker.
Appointment
Transferring reservations is not supported in AT. Why not just use the name in the AT screenshot?
Buyers interested in Bern's Steakhouse: PLEASE READ
Same goes for 4 Charles and I Sodi
Prepaid Reservation Fee
Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.
Congrats on 3 mil
🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🧨🧨🧨 now on to 30 mill!
Need to cancel a bid, not getting a response… how do I do it?
Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid?
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted.
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome
to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from?
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered?
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
